A local shop has a nice lightly used Howa in .222Rem. I think it could be picked up reasonably and has peaked my interest. I have heard how the .222 was the accuracy standard back in the day. Is that still so? Cartridge looks like it has a really long neck - is that a good or bad thing. What is your overall opinion of the .222?
I have owned several .223's (Tikka T3 Varmint currently) and have stuff to reload them. It looks like the .222 will use many of the same components so with a set of dies and some brass I could be up and shooting.
